Addendum on February 17, 2021
By this point, additional payments had been made:
-
Monthly rewards for the first month to participants of the “Free TON Activity and Support on Forums” contest - 2950 TON Crystal;
-
Rewards for participants of the ended Crypto Quest: “Free TON 2021 - Try your luck after 2020” (Stage 2) - 756.32 TON Crystal.
The Stage 1 budget has been reserved for future reward payments:
-
Free TON Ambassadors (Stage 1: Ambassadors Selection) winners for implementing programs in Stage 2 - 22500 TON Crystal;
-
Monthly rewards for the second month of the Free TON Activity and Support on Forums competition - 3250 TON Crystal;
-
